Children have two alternatives outside of the "Boonie Bears" universe this year, but with the tough competition they face, they are fated to be relatively overlooked and unlikely to perform as well as their counterparts. The two features, both also animated, are loosely based on elements from the Chinese classic fantasy novel "Journey to the West." The first, "Ba Jie," follows the story of Zhu Bajie, an anthropomorphic pig and a disciple of Monk Xuanzang, outlining his origin story and various adventures.
"God of Money," meanwhile, tells the story of a cat spirit whose origin can be traced back to his involvement in the Monkey King's havoc and rebellion in Heaven's Palace. Having since been saved by the God of Fortune, he returns to Earth in modern times to plant a money tree, wanting to repay the favor. However, he wanders into a pet hospital and is treated as a stray cat, getting waylaid before he can implement his plan.
